My family (and the dog!) are coming to stay with us next week which is sending me into a frenzy of finishing jobs and just when we least need it, our fridge has broken. We can survive this, but I don't think my parents will be able to cope without fresh milk for tea.

So, last night we bought this Liebherr fridge freezer. As fridges go, it's very sexy! All stainless steel and very spacious. It's resting at the moment from having it's gasses shaken up on the car ride home (we managed to fit it into Dom's Astra Estate!) but tonight it will be installed and turned on. I can't wait!

Fridge Update: We are very happy with the Liebherr's performance and, after getting sick of smear-wiping I did a bit of web research and tried olive oil applied with some kitchen roll. I couldn't believe the results. All smears disappeared in an instant and the surface looks immaculate. Now I know I need not worry about buying other stainless steel appliances. So much for the over-priced e-cloth that Comet sold us. Personally, I found it useless.
